//------------------------------// // Gallus asks Twilight a Question // Story: In Between The Dusk And The Dawn // by TPC-2k16 //------------------------------//      The two creatures are on their way to the Equestrian city of Pononto.     To see that if maybe here Gallus can see his parents once again.     Inside the train, the two sitting opposite from each other, Twilight passing the time by reading a book. Whereas Gallus is constantly thinking of how things will pan out.     Twilight looks up from her book to check on him, seeing the griffin looking nervous/worried.     “You hanging in there?”     “Hanging in there?” Gallus thinks for a second. “Actually, yes.”     “Okay. If you need anything, I’m right here.”     “Well actually, there is something I would like to know.”     Twilight marks her place in her book, closing and setting it aside. “And that is?”     Gallus looks straight at her. “Cozy Glow wanted that one file because of something you bought two years ago. And you and I have only been together for one year. So, if I might ask, you couldn’t have possibly bought tickets to Pononto for us to find my parents ‘cause two years ago we haven’t even met yet. So I guess my question is, what was the original reason you bought them?”     Twilight gets a look of worry for a bit before breathing a good long sigh of relief.     “Well, I was probably gonna have to tell somepony else. Since you asked, it might as well be you.”     Twilight looks around to see that nopony is paying them attention, then motions a hoof for Gallus to come closer.     “What I bought two years ago were two train tickets to Pononto, true. Just, I didn’t have either you or your parents in mind,” Twilight whispers softly, “I bought them for me... and for one other... Spike most likely.”     “So let me get this straight. Two years ago, before you even would’ve met me, you went ahead and bought two train tickets to Pononto. Okay but why? And why would Cozy care about this at all?” Gallus whispers softly to her as well.     “Because... because I... know a pony there I may or may not have a crush on,” Twilight whispers to Gallus quietly, nopony not even noticing of their conversation, “And Cozy Glow... is his sister.”     Gallus’ jaw immediately drops. What how the same pony that wants to destroy Twilight’s reputation is also the same pony who’s the baby sister of the pony she just so happens to like.
